Mosiah 25-28; Alma 36: pt 3

The Lord saw fit in his infinite mercy to spare Alma and the sons of Mosiah. Likewise, he has seen fit to spare each of us. Every one of us must be born of the Spirit. The Lord knows whether we need to see an angel and be struck lame and dumb or if there is some other way for him to call us to repentance. He deals with each of us in the way that will make it most likely, short of taking away our agency, for us to obey and follow him. It's good for me to remember and feel this.
